Students and teachers will roar as Kenn Nesbitt pokes fun at silly school topics with dozens of wacky poems.

Who knew school lunches and detention could be so funny? Kenn Nesbitt, that’s who! Do you attend a school like the one Kenn Nesbitt describes in this hysterically funny collection of poems? There’s a frenzied food fight in the cafeteria. For show-and-tell, kids burp the ABCs. Recently, “pet days” have been banned (and for good reason). And the funniest things happen when the teacher isn’t looking. Kids and teachers rate these rhymes A+ (and you will, too).

Genre:

  • Children's Books
  • Juvenile Fiction
  • Poetry
  • Poetry (see Also Stories In Verse)

Series:

  • Giggle Poetry

Kenn Nesbitt lives in Washington State with his wife, two children, three cats, and six computers. His zany and whimsical poetry has appeared in children's poetry anthologies and schoolbooks all over Planet Earth and can also be found on the Internet at www.poetry4kids.com. When he's not playing with his family, cats, or computers, you'll find Kenn writing poetry or visiting elementary schools, sharing his crazy brand of rhyming humor with kids everywhere.
